Kamyk Heritage Park / Tamizo Architects

Portada based Tamizo Architects have sent us their latest project, the Kamyk Heritage Park. The idea of the park’s concept was to create a kind of small village with a few different buildings/functions which mix village with contemporary style at the same time.

The plot is located in a small village in Poland called Kamyk. It’s quite big and it’s located in a village landscape plot with two small ponds in the center of it. The main building of the whole concept and a first part of the competition was a restaurant/wedding house building.

More images and full architect’s description after the break.

One of the most important guideline for this project was that the building should be able to serve three separate wedding parties at the same time which should be serviced by one kitchen. Of course the plan should be flexible and in case of big parties, the need to merge it in one space.

The architecture of the building should be modern but at the same time it should correspond to the surrounding buildings character. That’s why we use typical sloping thatched roofs as a symbol of the village style and simple white walls with big openings as a contrast and symbol of present time architecture.

The openings give a great view at the beautiful landscape. The building consists in 3 separate solids with restaurant areas joined by the main entrance area and the kitchen. In a center of it there is a big rectangular patio.

The second part of the ‘Kamyk Heritage Park’ consists in a small hotel building for the wedding parties guests. It could be designed as a part of the restaurant building, but because of the functional aspects we decided to design it as a separate building. The function was realy simple: six rooms for the parties guests and some technical rooms.

The main challenge was to define solids which could correspond to the scale and character of the village. Our final decision was to tract each hotel room as a separate house. The mix of six different wooden houses with white simple boxes give us an interesting result which was quite different than the wedding house building, but at the same time it suits well to it. The whole concept will be completed by following functions: temporary market with local vegetables, fruits, meats, cheeses… small scene for occasional ceremony, and others…

This is probably the most attractive pitched roof design I have ever seen. I cant tell if these images are renders or photographs. Though they must be renders, I love the Audi as an accessory to the building.

    “They still copying others” and themselves – all the time the same projects and renderings – walls, columns rofs – but where is architecture, IDEA?

Ricardo says:

The pitched roofs look superb, but the white flat-roofed connections look clumsy: too heavy, too thick. There’s little integration, little balance. It diminishes the elegance of the rest.

I think that the toilet array is naif. There’s always a need for a common space in restaurant-wedding pavillions’ rest rooms – assisting children, grooming conversation, “powdering-the-nose” chit-chat, and the bride will usually need assistance with her dress… girls do go in groups to the rest rooms in Poland too, don’t they? Besides, no accessible toilet for handicapped?

Moreover: where’s the kitchen? In another building? Where will the other buildings in the vicinity be? Xenia is right: a site plan (at least) should be shown, because the relations between the buildings themselves, and the site, aren’t clear (there’s water, there’s grass, there’s a vehicle path… nothing else?). Besides, if the purity of the isolatedly displayed buildings is compromised by the presence of other elements not depicted, then there would be a flaw, and the display would be trying fool us into not showing it. Notice: I’m not stating that this flaw exists; I just wish that there were a site plan, an aerial view or a common perspective that wouldn’t make people suspect it.

Dekodex says:

even if I consider this images as skatches I have to ask about the toilets…ARE YOU CRAZY???? You know how to render now learn how to make buildings. Becouse there is functional nor spatial relationships, and construction is chubby as well. Concrete roof with wooden construction inside? But still, form is nice I must say…

I found out about these guys in Vray related forums when some of them were still students.

I really hope they start building those ideas, they sure produce beautiful architecture that shouldn’t remain in renderings.

C’mon potential clients, start hiring them!

first doubts : what kind of HERITAGE? ( heritage of culture, tradition, regional architecture or heritage of heritage ) do you know the meaning of this word? do you think that puting tatched rooftops it is enough to say that it is contemporary interpretation of polish heritage?
second doubts : why are you strighly coping from KWKpromes (small hotel building divides night zones into small private buildings like KWK’s gathering place)
do you think people are blind?
